FRANK L. WHITE AND HALL P. JARVIS, OF LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS.

CHURNING APPARATUS.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Jan. 5, 1909.

Application filed July 6, 1908. Serial No. 442,135.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, FRANK L. WHITE and HALL P. JARVIS, citizens of theUnited States, residing at Little Rock, in the county of Pulaski andState of Arkansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inChurning Apparatus; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full,clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enableothers skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use thesame, reference being had. to the accompanying drawings, and to theletters and figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part ofthis specification.

This invention relates to new and useful improvements in churningapparatus and comprises essentially two cams between which is mountedone end of a pivotal lever connected to a dasher, the cams beingactuated by intermeshing gear wheels to which power is applied from amaster gear wheel.

The invention comprises various details of construction, combinationsand arrangements of parts which will be hereinafter fully described andthen specifically defined in the appended claim.

We illustrate our invention in the accompanying drawings, in whichFigure 1 is a side elevation of the apparatus, and Fig. 2 is a sectionalview on line 22 of Fig. 1.

Reference now being had to the details of the drawings by letter, Adesignates a standard carrying a stub shaft B upon which a master gearwheel C is journaled, and D designates a shaft which is fastened to arecessed spring of said wheel and has a handle D fixed thereto. Alsomounted upon said standard are the two intermeshing gear Wheels G and H,each being mounted upon a pivot pin I NN designate eccentric wheelswhich are fixed to the shafts I. Projecting from said standard is an armA carrying a pivot pin A upon which the lever K is pivotally mounted.The short end of said lever extends between said eccentrio wheels andits other end is pivotally connected to a pin 0 upon the dasher shaft L.

The operation of our invention will be readily understood and is asfollows :-As the master wheel is rotated, the intermeshing gear wheelsare caused to rotate in opposite directions and, as the cam wheelsrotate therewith and between which the short end of the lever bears,said lever will be caused to tilt upon its pivot and impart areciprocating motion to the dasher.

What we claim to be new is A churning apparatus comprising a standardhaving a laterally projecting winged portion with an integral angledupwardly extending arm thereon, intermeshing pinions pivotally mountedupon said Winged portion, an eccentric rotating with each pinion, alever pivotally mounted upon the upwardly extending end of said arm andhaving one arm extending intermediate said eccentrics and positionedbetween the adjacent faces of the pinions and the winged portion, and adasher pivotally connected to the other arm of the lever, as set forth.

In testimony whereof we hereunto affix our signatures in the presence oftwo wit- J NO. D. SHooKLEFoRD.
